Li Muchan entered the city, led the horse to an inn, woke up the innkeeper, and then put the horse down, but did not ask for a room. They left the inn directly and used Qinggong to climb over the wall.
Afterwards, the two of them used Qing Kung and hurried forward, flying forward in one breath. Under the dim moonlight, during the galloping, Li Muchan gave him tips on how to use Qing Kung.
He Ruosong's Qing Gong was not very good, but under Li Muchan's guidance, he was able to bring out its subtlety and completeness, and his speed greatly increased.
He was very excited, feeling the speed he had never experienced before, it was really faster than riding a horse.
When he got tired after running for half an hour, Li Muchan stopped and asked him to run the Guiyuan Jue. Within a quarter of an hour, he regained his internal strength and continued running.
While galloping, Li Muchan was distracted and used his mind to sense He Yuliang's position. Although he hadn't used his spiritual sense for a long time, he had not deteriorated, but had become a bit stronger.
He could vaguely feel that He Yuliang's direction should be to the south, and the direction he was heading was getting closer and closer to him.
Li Muchan's original plan was to see if he could find something personal to He Yuliang. Once found, he would use his intuition to find He Yuliang, send He Ruosong back first, and then say goodbye to Fan Wenshan.
But Fan Wenshan's direction of travel was close to He Yuliang, and he took advantage of Li Muchan's thoughts to send He Ruosong back, and then approached He Yuliang.
He Yuliang was able to survive well under the pursuit of Taiyi Sect, which showed that he was also capable. Li Muchan wanted to see such a person.
The two walked and walked, and finally caught up with Master Fan Wenshan and his disciples in the evening of the next day. They were surprised to see He Ruosong and Li Muchan catching up, especially when they saw that He Ruosong was performing Qing Gong.
Surprised.
Master Fan Wenshan and his apprentice got off their horses, and the four of them sat down in front of a small forest nearby to talk.
Fan Wenshan looked Li Muchan up and down and said with a smile, "Brother Li, I didn't expect you to be so quick. Did you find that place?"
Li Muchan nodded: "Thanks to Brother He for being smart, he has already seen it."
"Why do brothers Li want to see there?" Fan Wenshan asked.
He took the water bag handed over by Ding Bin and gestured. Li Muchan waved his hand to indicate that he didn't want it. He opened the lid and took a sip, sighing.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "I want to see how their martial arts are. From the fighting venue, you can see a lot of things. This He Yuliang is indeed an expert."
"Well, his swordsmanship is very good and he was able to survive the siege of two people with ease. If it weren't for the old man, he would have killed those two people long ago." Fan Wenshan nodded.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "That old man is a powerful character. I should use him as a whetstone for this pursuit."
Fan Wenshan shook his head and said: "I don't think so. In the end, the old man also took action, but there was nothing he could do, and he still escaped!"
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows: "Oh——?"
He was quite surprised, he did not expect this result, and thought that the old man never took action.
Fan Wenshan said: "His swordsmanship is extremely exquisite. He suddenly made a move, which was so powerful that the old man did not dare to attack him forcefully. He took the opportunity to escape."
It seemed that the Taiyi Sect's unique skills should not be underestimated. This kind of swordsmanship must be astonishingly powerful. He was itching to hear it and wished he could see He Yuliang right away.
He suppressed his curiosity and walked with Fan Wenshan. On the evening of the next day, they arrived at Yingchun City.
Yingchun City is not big, nor is it very prosperous, but it is very lively at this time. Many martial arts figures came to the city, all of them carrying swords on their backs, with bright eyes and sharp edges.
The residents of Yingchun City are very cautious these days, lest they offend these outsiders. They all have bad tempers and will get angry if they are not careful.
The four of them, Li Muchan, arrived at Yingchun City under the glow of the setting sun. When they saw the martial arts figures coming and going on the street, Fan Wenshan stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Mr. Wan's prestige is extremely high. You will know it just by looking at these people."
He Ruosong praised: "There are so many people."
Fan Wenshan smiled and said: "I'm afraid we won't be able to find an inn now. Let's go directly to Wanfu!"
Li Muchan nodded and looked around, his face thoughtful.
He sensed He Yuliang's presence, as if he was in the Yingchun City, which was beyond his expectation, but it saved trouble.
He followed Fan Wenshan to a large house and handed over his name card. Then the door opened. No one was seen, but he heard laughter coming from inside: "Brother Fan is here in person, okay!"
With loud laughter, several people walked out. The first person was a tall and thin old man with a strong figure, a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a straight nose and a square mouth. He was extremely upright, with a pair of particularly bright eyes.
.
His eyebrows and beard were all white, and his appearance was not handsome, but he was pleasing to the eye. He looked upright, and his big bright eyes made him look young and full of vitality.
Li Muchan secretly smiled. If he hadn't noticed that he wasn't disguised, he would have been thought to be a young man disguised as an old man. These eyes were really young, without the sense of vicissitudes of time.
Fan Wenshan took a step forward, clasped his fists and smiled: "Brother Wan, I'm here!"
The old man stretched out his hand to grab Fan Wenshan and said with a smile: "Haha, brother Fan, I have been thinking these past few days that it's time for you to arrive, and finally I'm waiting for you!"
Li Muchan knew that he was Wan Zhongshan. He originally thought he was tall and majestic, but he didn't expect that he was so skinny and skinny, which really didn't match his name.
Fan Wenshan took his hand and pointed at Li Muchan: "Come on, brother Wan, let me introduce you to a young hero, Li Zhanran, known as the scholar with strange hands!"
"Okay, Li Shaoxia, welcome, I like young heroes the most!" Wan Zhongshan said with a smile.
Fan Wenshan pointed to his two disciples and asked them to come forward to greet him.
Ding Bin and He Ruosong obediently stepped forward to salute. Wan Zhongshan nodded and let in.
There were also four young people behind Wan Zhongshan, two men and two women, who followed everyone respectfully. He did not introduce Fan Wenshan, but directly took his hand and walked in: "Brother Fan, you haven't come out for many years, why don't you come out this year?"
You are so quiet that you want to come over and see me?"
Fan Wenshan smiled and said: "It's time for the two apprentices to come out and get to know each other. Your birthday is coming again, so I will naturally come over to join in the fun."
"Haha, we haven't seen each other for five years, right?" Wan Zhongshan shook his head and said with a smile: "These days go by so fast. Whoosh, just in the blink of an eye! ... Oh, look at these boys, rubbish.
When we grow up, do you think we can never grow old?"
Fan Wenshan shook his head: "Look at how energetic you are, how can you be old? If I can't do it, you are really old."
The two of them entered the hall while talking, and Wan Zhongshan waved his hand: "You all go and do your work. I will just talk to Brother Fan and set up the place!"
"Yes, Master." The four young men and women responded respectfully, then bowed to Fan Wenshan and Li Muchan and exited the hall.
"Brother Wan, you also have a successor." Watching them slowly exit the hall, Fan Wenshan stroking his beard nodded and said with a smile: "Can you all stand alone?"
"It's still far from it." Wan Zhongshan waved his hand and shook his head and said: "These little guys have good understanding and work hard enough, but it's a pity that they are just a little bit behind and they are not good enough."
"Don't be hasty, maybe you'll get the idea overnight." Fan Wenshan said with a smile.
When the two of them were talking, Li Muchan sat quietly aside, while Ding Bin and He Ruosong couldn't sit still. They originally thought that the two of them would talk about anecdotes, martial arts anecdotes, and their past experiences, but they just talked about trivial things at home.
It made them both feel sleepy.
They had been traveling for a day, and they still performed Qinggong. He Ruosong was better. Although Ding Bin was more advanced than his junior brother, he was even more tired and could hardly sit still.
Wan Zhongshan pretended not to see it, and still talked to Fan Wenshan, chatting about some trivial matters, such as how your disciples are, how my disciples are, and how difficult it is to teach.
Li Muchan had the ability to multi-task. He sat there calmly, seeming to be listening intently, but in fact he was sensing He Yuliang's position.
His perception became clearer and clearer. He Yuliang was in the city, only one mile away from him. He was wondering whether to take action now or wait.
While he was thinking, Wan Zhongshan suddenly turned around and smiled at Li Muchan: "Young Master Li, I'm sorry. Brother Fan and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I forgot to entertain you, Young Master Li."
Li Muchan clasped his fists and smiled: "I have admired the name of senior Wan for a long time, and I am satisfied to be able to see his face. There is no need to be polite."
Wan Zhongshan smiled and said: "Haha, I heard from Brother Fan that you beat up a disciple of Taiyi Sect?"
Li Muchan nodded: "I have nothing to do with the Taiyi Sect, so I won't let it go if I have the opportunity. But don't worry, senior, I won't take action if I see someone from the Taiyi Sect in the city."
"Haha, little brother is so heroic, daring to hit people from the Taiyi Sect!" Wan Zhongshan laughed and said: "I have long disliked the Taiyi Sect, but it's a pity that I don't dare to offend, so you can take out the bad breath on my behalf!"
Li Muchan smiled bitterly and said: "It's a pity that I am weak and weak, so I can only do this."
The two talked on the phone for a while. Seeing that Ding Bin and He Ruosong couldn't hold on any longer, Fan Wenshan could only wave his hand and let them go out first and rest in the resettlement room. He and Wan Zhongshan continued chatting.
Li Muchan also said goodbye and left, returning to his small courtyard. He was alone in a small courtyard, and next to him were three masters and apprentices, Fan Wenshan.
He could see that Wan Zhongshan did not take him seriously. His current status was just an ordinary master in the martial arts world. Naturally, a master like Wan Zhongshan would not take him seriously.
However, the cultivation level of this Wan Zhong Mountain is really good. He is almost the same as his master, and he can be regarded as a top master. It is really rare for no one to reach this level, and Li Muchan admires him in his heart.
Li Muchan walked over to another small courtyard and smiled at the brothers in the courtyard: "Brother Ding, Brother He, how about we go to the city for a walk?"
"Okay!" He Ruosong was overjoyed, but Ding Bin hesitated for a moment.
He Ruosong said hurriedly: "Senior brother, we can't come here without seeing the excitement in the city, right?"
Ding Bin said: "But the master is not here..."
He Ruosong stepped forward and took his arm: "Brother, we are just going out for a look, we are not causing trouble!"
Li Muchan said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, this is Yingchun City, and it's Mr. Wan's birthday, no one will do anything."
"...Okay then." Ding Bin was not very determined at first and was also itchy. After all, he was also a young man and still liked to join in the fun.
The three of them left Wanfu and came to Wanchunlou, the largest restaurant in the city. At this time, the dusk turned into night, and the surrounding lights started to turn on, and the lights in Wanchunlou were brightly lit.
The three of them found a table on the first floor. They were surrounded by people and it was very lively.
The layout on the first floor is very casual. There are only two or three people between tables. Once you sit down, you can touch the people at the next table, so it is densely packed and everyone is talking, making it naturally noisy.
Ding Bin and He Ruosong looked around and felt that they were too close to each other and felt unsafe. They could smell each other's sweat. They couldn't bear it. However, Li Muchan was calm and sat quietly without speaking.
He was looking for the one he was interested in among the many voices. Suddenly his eyes narrowed and he saw a big man with thick eyebrows and thick mustache.
This big man was burly, wearing a brown leather robe, with a long beard covering half of his face, but his eyes were bright and fierce, as if he was ready to draw a sword and kill at any time.
Although he was sitting at a table of four, his temperament was like an unsheathed sword, which was particularly attractive. However, Li Muchan felt a movement in his heart and felt a faint feeling.
He glanced at He Ruosong, who was frowning and dealing with the pig's trotters on the plate with both hands.
Li Muchan vaguely felt that this person was He Yuliang, but he did not rush to approach him. He glanced at He Yuliang and slowly lowered his head to drink.
Although He Yuliang's disguise skills are extremely good, Li Muchan's disguise skills were immediately broken when he saw other disguise skills after passing Yubing Pavilion's disguise skills.
But what really made him confirm was his feeling and intuition. He felt the same aura of gray cloth from this person, so it was undoubtedly He Yuliang.
He is so brave, he dares to come here and disguise himself as such an outstanding person. It seems that He Yuliang's temperament likes taking risks and winning by surprise.
Li Muchan drank slowly and listened to the news around him, keeping his attention on He Yuliang.
He Ruosong finally wiped out the pig's trotters on the plate and looked up at Ding Bin: "Brother, aren't you going to eat?"
Ding Bin shook his head, frowned and looked around: "It's too noisy here, let's go back!"
He Ruosong looked at Li Muchan, who smiled and said: "Don't be anxious, don't be nervous, it's nothing."
He saw Ding Bin's nervousness and alertness, smiled and shook his head: "Just eat and drink with openness."
"I think it's not safe here." Ding Bin whispered.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Where is there an absolutely safe place? It doesn't matter."
While he was talking, he saw He Yuliang stand up suddenly, then knocked down the person sitting behind him with one palm, and kicked him a few more times: "Grandma, you are tired of living, why don't you bump into me!"
"How dare you!" The other three people stood up and rushed towards He Yuliang.
He Yuliang sneered, waved his palm lightly and made three crisp sounds. The three people who rushed up spun around and then fell to the ground.
He Yuliang took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped his hands, and sat down slowly.
Li Muchan frowned, this He Yuhao is not overbearing!
The four people on the ground slowly got up and glanced at He Yuliang. Resentment flashed in their eyes, but they did not dare to say anything. Knowing that they had encountered a difficult situation, they turned around and left without saying a word.
"Wait!" He Yuliang suddenly raised his hand and said calmly: "You want to leave now?"
A chubby middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said, "How are you doing?!"
"Get out!" He Yuliang said: "Listen clearly, you are not leaving, you are getting out!"
The chubby middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said, "Don't bully others too much!"
"So what if I go too far to deceive others?" He Yuliang suddenly laughed nervously, making everyone's ears ring and their blood boil.
Li Muchan's brows twitched. His cultivation level was good and he deserved to have escaped from Taiyi Sect.
"Let's fight!" The chubby middle-aged man turned to look, and the other three nodded with gritted teeth. After that, he drew out the long sword from his waist and stabbed He Yuliang.
He Yuliang sneered, and when the long sword came to his eyes, he suddenly drew the sword out of its sheath. Everyone felt a cold light flash before their eyes, and the four swords flew out.
"Ding..." With a crisp sound, He Yuliang's long sword trembled and swung away in front of the chubby middle-aged man's throat.
The chubby middle-aged man broke out in a cold sweat, turned around and ran away.
"Want to leave?!" He Yuliang sneered and stood up, and when he was about to chase after him, a red dot suddenly shot into his chest.
He had no choice but to stop and wave his sword to block. There was a crisp "ding" sound, and the sword swung away again, almost flying out of his hand.
Only then did he see clearly that what hit his sword were two peanuts.
"Who is the master?" He Yuliang said coldly, holding his sword and looking around, trying to find the one who shot the peanuts.
The people around him stepped back, staying two feet away from him, for fear that his sword would strike them.
He Ruosong glanced at Li Muchan secretly, and he saw clearly that the two peanuts were popped out by Li Muchan, as fast as a meteor.
Li Muchan lowered his head to drink and ignored it.
He Yuliang sneered: "Since we have taken action, why hide our heads and show our tails?!"
Li Muchan shook his head and sighed, what on earth is this He Yuliang going to do? Since he is being hunted by the Taiyi Sect, he is still so high-profile. Is he really crazy? He knew that he would die, so he went crazy in the end?
He Yuliang's gaze was like a cold blade, scanning everyone one by one. There were many martial arts masters in the field, but they rarely confronted him. They all pretended not to see him and looked away.
"You hide your head and show your tail!" He Yuliang sneered and sat down.
He Ruosong whispered: "Brother Li, why...?"
Li Muchan smiled and waved his hand. He Ruosong stopped talking and glanced quietly at He Yuliang. Seeing that he lowered his head to drink without looking here, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Ding Bin also looked at Li Muchan curiously, wondering why he didn't show up.
